George Dandan, who worked at Charlotte Douglas International Airport in North Carolina, was arrested Friday and charged with possession of a weapon of mass destruction, acquiring a weapon of mass destruction, and transporting a weapon of mass destruction, WCNC reports. Police say Dandan, 30, was given a homemade pipe bomb by neighbor Derrick Fells, 39, who has also been charged.

Police say Fells planned to use the bomb against a neighbor but changed his mind and gave it to Dandan. Dandan, who is also a volunteer with the local fire department, was arrested in 2015 and charged with assaulting a woman. Authorities say his airport access only extended to the control tower.
